How to add photo library button on a UIImagePickerController?

Question

Does anyone know how to enable the photo album button on a UIImagePickerController when it's in the camera mode?

I am very new in iOS development. I have seen this kind of question, but I can't understand it so please help me out by explaining step by step and give sample code if possible.

I'm afraid (I looked into doing this recently) that there is no easy way (i.e no built in setting) that you can simply enable.

You must use the cameraOverlayView property of the UIImagePickerController to add a custom view over the camera view which will include a photo album button.
